Longtime readers of this blog will know that although I had a somewhat tumultuous history with the institution on the whole I enjoyed my time at the Univeristy of Michigan’s student newspaper the Michigan Daily. One of the people I met there was Nick Woomer, whom I had the opportunity to catch up with briefly this weekend, which got me thinking about things Daily.

In Ann Arbor this weekend the newspaper was holding their last reunion at the newspaper’s building before it undergoes a major renovation, and I stumbled across this set of photos on Flickr from the weekend if anyone unable to attend wants to take a peek at what they missed. Although I’ve already posted a link to it, my friend and former news and opinion editor at the paper (And Express editor and DCist co-founder) Mike Grass wrote an interesting post about some of the building’s secrets titled “Maynard Street’s Living Tomb.” Lastly, I think this editorial board photo from 2002 may be of interest to anyone around the newspaper at the time.
